The bill trims or eliminates statutory authority in subsection (c), which may lower federal obligations and spending but does so by removing authorities and benefits and creating regulatory uncertainty for agencies, beneficiaries, and state/local governments.
No clear direct benefits to everyday Americans are created by this bill; the amendment primarily removes statutory text rather than adding new services or protections.
Agencies, programs, and recipients: the bill removes authorities or benefits previously provided by subsection (c), which may result in lost funding, revoked legal authority, or reduced program operations for federal employees, program beneficiaries, and organizations that relied on that authority.
Taxpayers and service users: eliminating the statutory obligations in subsection (c) can reduce federal obligations and government spending, but that reduction is achieved by cutting or ending programs/benefits—potentially lowering services available to Americans who relied on them.
State and local governments (and other program administrators): removing statutory text creates legal and regulatory uncertainty that could disrupt program administration, require agencies to change operations, and force additional legislation or guidance to clarify consequences.

Removes subsection (c) of Section 4024 of the CARES Act (15 U.S.C. 9058), thereby eliminating whatever federal requirements, authorities, or provisions that subsection previously imposed. The text does not add funding, an effective date, or replacement language; the practical effects depend on the content of the repealed subsection and how agencies and courts treat that change.
